About this map

The French Broad River snakes through the northern reaches of this Buncombe County landscape, defined by the deep valleys of Sandy Mush Creek and Turkey Creek. During the mid-twentieth century, this region was a network of rural communities anchored by small schoolhouses and country chapels. The village of Leicester serves as a central hub, where Leicester Sch stood near the junction of several mountain branches.
